Think Brick Awards
Think Brick’s two premiere design competitions – the About Face Design Competition and the Horbury Hunt Award, encourage designers and builders to rethink brick as a contemporary and sustainable design material.
In 2005 Think Brick Australia embarked on a small project to engage seven architects to deliver their visions of what a brick home of the future might look like.
The designs and ideas that followed exceeded expectations on every level, so the About Face design competition was born.
Since that time we have expanded the scope and breadth of About Face and it is now the focus of our campaign to encourage the Australian architectural profession to ‘re-think brick’.
In 2008, we re-introduced the Horbury Hunt award into the fold of the Think Brick Awards programme. The Horbury Hunt Award recognises excellence and innovation in brick craftsmanship and acknowledges the role architects, designers, landscape designers, builders, masonry contractors and brick manufacturers play in achieving that excellence and innovation in built projects.
